I’m sure they will have ads in the Xbox launcher because why wouldn’t Microsoft.

But it does look like it essentially kills all the graphical and backend items of windows for single loading this UI from the videos, and then boots up the extra items when requested for the full OS.
I would actually be worried it won’t properly kill them swapping back and then you lose the gains until a reboot.

I really want this to be a low margin device they sell meant to boost gamepads subscriptions and it ends up being easy to modify or control cause I would literally reward them with the subscription for that.
If only they can resist being Microsoft.

My problem with steam is is trying to run anything that isn’t steam without having to go fully into the Linux OS with a keyboard attached.

That and the whole super drained battery from having to be on to update any games thing.

In so happy for Inner/Outersloth.

I really hope they end up like a new Annapurna with just some banger indie titles that’s good for the industry instead of a rich brats ego.

The American electorate is not who is writing your comments.

You are distinctly ignoring other critiques to focus on gender as the main component. Do not assign your own bias to everyone else. We do not all think as you do and can’t be blamed for what you think to be true.

Statistically across the world women win elections at the same rate as men.

Support a female president you want then instead of telling them all that none of them can win because of their gender. It makes you sound like the sexist.

2 years not months.

And there is a lot of single family home renting in the US as landlording is seen as a legitimate income source and investment. Those people would be excluded if not done correctly and that’s likely true for a massive portion of them.

And the fact that in a population of 100 million renters in the US it leaves a majority of them out.

Do not blame it on being a woman, statistically they win the same rate as male candidates just run far less often.

It’s just being sexist for someone else’s sake.

This is not the time to run status quo and low effort candidates but loud and effective ones which we have a shortage of in the DNC.

Not government housing. Government assured or recognized rental agencies. For proof of payment. It’s part of the boring bureaucracy parts.

And primarily focusing on first generation homebuyers benefits people who have had no previous generations living in the country which is directly beneficial to 1st or second generational immigrants.

I am adjusting my position as I gain further information but the the proposed plans did not just offer free cash to assist the average American in buying a home. That’s still at the base of my point and still accurate. I am now aware that the plan was proposed by Biden and adjusted late into the campaign by Harris after backlash for it.

How much conversation does it take to get to the truth? However long it takes for both sides to agree on what it is.

Edit for myself that it was not Harris’s proposal but Bidens that is so restrictive and she resubmitted it and later adjusted around the end of August 2024 to be accessible to any first time home buyer. However, in a proposed 4 year plan that would limit to 1 million people a year and still require the rental proof and give preference to first generation homebuyers first.

Here is the campaign announcement.

The Biden-Harris administration initially proposed providing $25,000 in downpayment assistance only for 400,000 first-generation home buyers—or homebuyers whose parents don’t own a home—and a $10,000 tax credit for first-time home buyers.

This is from Harris’s campaign announcement. The extension to millions would be the 4 year plan. And was adjusted again after Biden’s original proposal of this was panned for being what I originally sourced. The very last offering she made by the end of the campaign was looser on restrictions.

I was incorrect, in that she removed the tax credit and made wider eligibility though stated that those still meeting the original criteria would get more assistance, though all would be required to meet the 2 year of proven rental payments through an assured rental agency.

How do you become a first generation to a country without immigrating to it even if it is by your parents? The country was not founded at the time of their birth, the generation before them was an immigrant.

I’m sorry but that’s pointless pedantry to resist having to put my comment back of legitimate criticism against the idea that the Harris campaign was providing cash for buying homes to the average American.

Mostly pro immigrant news sources that were happy about the benefit this would give directly to those communities and the fact that it targets people that have no other family members with a house in the US which those of us with older parents who were born in the US likely have.

The $10,000 credit for only first time homebuyers was a later addition and was not even set as it was more an additional thought tacked on and does nothing for actually giving money for the down payment but only credits you after you bought it.

Not helpful.

It was literally designed around first generational home buyers. Just cause people don’t like that doesn’t mean it’s misinformation.
Down payment assistance was only for first generation and she had proposed adding a tax credit for first time home buyers. That would include average people.

The proposal includes $25,000 in downpayment assistance for 400,000 first-generation homebuyers, defined as those whose parents do not own a home. To qualify, these families must have a history of paying rent on time for at least two years. Additionally, the plan offers a $10,000 tax credit for first-time homebuyers. Here is another article

I don’t have the proposed plan specifically as it also changed a couple times and was more just a proposal without much meat other than primarily being what I said it was.

Specifically, it targets individuals and families who have paid their rent on time for two years and are looking to buy their first home. The proposal offers up to $25,000 in down payment support, with more generous assistance available for first-generation homebuyers, meaning those whose parents do not currently own a home.

Proposed a $10,000 tax credit for first time home buyers.

Yeah, it was a shame it was so restrictive, literally was also set for a limit of 400,000 individuals when first proposed too.

Its a criticism of the garbage solutions that were brought forward for good headlines rather than actual support.

I’m now replacing this game with Clockwork Revolution to keep an eye on since it’s the producer of the first 2 fallout games.

I also do not understand people’s desire to be part of the group so much they buy things that aren’t what they want and just play it anyways. I think it’s just all forms of addiction.

Usual trick I would think of is to make a simple veggie broth and freeze it after reduction. Tomatoes and cauliflower stems should be good for that and watermelon same but juicing it and freezing it.
At least it stores better and longer and reducing the air and space it takes up reduces it as well once it’s just a liquid. Freezing in baking pans helps it go quicker to even though it is more smaller batches.

Wow you didn’t use a single brain cell considering that from any other perspective than your own with that comment.

Just wanted to confirm that, cause that is the vibe you seem to have purposely put out there.

That and the completely garbage inventory with no good filter and sort.

That first game felt like a demo with lot of polish but didn’t feel like a precursor for an $80 game. And already cost me $30 for the first time of meh.

None I think. I paid for all my streaming services that had these movies and shows and then have sourced everything else through originals or sources that were rentable.

This is that whole issue with defining ownership with digital media. Movies were called the greatest financial invention of America because they only had to make a product once and could sell it forever.
With digital media and technology increases we now have a much easier time owning our own copies.

This is likely literally what NFTs hoped to fix to make set revenue of of each digital file and also why they failed because they are so easy to copy anyways.

So, none, or an infinite amount, depending on if you ask me or a business major.
